Liquify Tool needs much better smoothing



  • Unfortunately, I find the results with the Liquify tool unsatisfactory
    and not really great. A much better smoothing would make this
    tool more usable.

    Even though the Liquify tool would be more important to me,
    I would also argue that all of these tools would benefit from
    much better smoothing options.

    Here the difference CorelDraw and VectorStyler.
    I know its not really the same Tool but i think you get what i mean.
    The transitions in Vectorstyle are much too harsh
    and lines are unsteady.

    @Subpath Smoothing can be adjusted in the tool options (double click tool icon, then Options button).

    I will find better defaults.

    Ok, played a bit with the Liquify Tool Settings and found out
    that "S-Curve 5" will do a somewhat better job.

    But I also find out that using these settings is no fun.
    For every small change to the settings you have to double click
    on the tool to access them again. I find that very tedious.

    Will try out a few settings and then get back to you

    @Subpath I opened a bug on this. The default settings must produce better results.
